Avaya 7406 Digital Mobile Handset — Installation Guide

Chapter 1

About Avaya 7406 Digital Mobile Handset

The Avaya 7406 Digital Mobile Handset is a multiple-handset, single-base Digital Mobile

Handset. The Avaya 7406 digital mobile handset provides a fully-integrated mobility solution for

your business. The Avaya 7406 Digital Mobile Handset allows you to freely move around your

work space while on a call, and still maintain access to all your telephone system features.

The Avaya 7406 Digital Mobile Handset uses advanced digital frequency hopping spread

spectrum (FHSS) technology to provide a quality audio path over a 900 MHz radio link.

Establishing a call over a radio link is comparable to a wire line communication.

Radio range and coverage considerations

The effective operating radio range in your facility depends on the building construction and the

internal layout of the facility. Typically, a dense office or warehouse environment has an effective

operating radio range of 95 meters (300 feet). An open office environment enhances operating

radio ranges. Refer to “Provisioning the Avaya 7406 Digital Mobile Handset” on page 25.

Security of Conversation

Each base station has a unique Security Code (S.S. Code). All three handsets registered to the base

station must share the same Security Code. Each of the three handsets assigned to a base station

must also have a unique identification (Set I.D. 1, 2 or 3).

Density and Interference

For this system to be interference-free, install a maximum of two base stations and six handsets per

location. Each base station provides three independent time compression multiplexing (TCM) line

connections to the telephone system.

Each base station uses half of the Industrial Scientific Medical (ISM) band for its frequency

hopping channels. The dip switches on the base station allow you to assign the base station to use

either the lower half (902-915 Mhz) or the upper half (915.1-928 Mhz).

Each base station must use a separate ISM half band. For more information about setting the dip

switches, refer to “Installing the Base Station” on page 9.

If other devices operating on the ISM band interfere with the Avaya 7406 Digital Mobile Handset

base, the other half of the band may be used to try to minimize interference. In this situation, install

only one base station and three handsets per location.

Note: The Avaya 7406 Digital Mobile Handset is supported on all Avaya Norstar

systems (DR3 or higher) and on all Avaya Business Communications Manager

systems.

Avaya 7406 Digital Mobile Handset — Installation Guide

Handset Overview

The handset automatically links with the base station by searching for the base station signal when

the following are completed:

• battery is charged

• base station and handset are powered

• handset identification is configured

• base station Security Code is assigned

Handset Signal Detection

You can monitor the handset signal strength while moving to different locations. The antenna/

signal strength and battery icons appear on the handset display.

When you move too far from the base station, the following occurs on the handset:

• the antenna/signal strength icon disappears

• ïïïïïïïïïïïïïïï message appears

• handset produces an intermittent beep

• handset may go into scanning mode

If the signal strength is weak, move back into range to stop the handset display messages and

warning tones.

If you go completely out of range during an active call, the call is automatically placed on hold.

For more information, refer to “Hold calls” on page 36. Retrieve a held call by selecting the

flashing red line button when you are back in range.

Note: In cases where the line button does not light when you move back into

range of the base station, press the intercom/line button that the call came in on, to

take the call off hold

Avaya 7406 Digital Mobile Handset — Installation Guide

Installing the Base Station

This section describes the base station and:

• how to mount the base station on a wall

• what programming is required before you connect the base station to your system

• how to connect the base station to your system

The Avaya 7406 Digital Mobile Handset system operates on the same principle as a two-way

radio. Therefore, the location of the base station affects the range of reception. The base station

should not be installed where radio waves are blocked or reflected, such as next to a filing cabinet.

For optimal performance, install the base station at least 2.4 meters (eight feet) above the floor and

at least 3.2 meters (ten and one half feet) apart from a second base station. Always position the

antenna at a 90° angle to the base station.

Base Station Features

This section illustrates the base station for the Avaya 7406 Digital Mobile Handset.

Handset Configuration

This section describes how to set up handsets on a base station. Note that there is one extra step for

setting up the first handset on a new base station.

Important First-time Installation Information

When performing the initial configurations on the handset, ensure that all the handsets you intend

to configure have fully-charged battery packs installed.

Since the handsets start scanning as soon as they are powered, you must set the handset ID #s first

when you configure the handset to avoid conflicts between handset signals and the possibility of

one set mirroring another.

If you install more than one base station on a system, ensure that you assign a unique Security code

to each base station. However, all base stations have the same three Handset ID numbers (1, 2, or

3), which identify the handset to the base station.

Identifying the Handsets to the System

Each of the three handsets registered to a base station share an identical Security code, but each

handset has a unique handset ID number of 1, 2, or 3.

The handset ID number the handset is assigned to maps back to the TCM/RJ-11 jack on the back

of the base station. The diagram below identifies which jack supports which handset ID number.

In turn, these numbers correspond to telephone records in the main system. In the system, these

records identify each telephone with a local number, referred to as a DN (directory number). Since

the records will be set up before you configure your handset, check with your system administrator

to determine which local has been assigned to which port. From there, you can identify which

Handset ID number should be assigned to each handset.

• Once the first handset has been configured, remove the battery pack from that handset and

place it in the second handset.

• Repeat for each handset you are configuring. The battery pack can be left in the last handset.

• After the final handset has been configured, fully-charged battery packs then can be placed

into the other handsets.

Note: When a base station is relocated, the Handset ID number follows the set

DN (system telephone record), if the Set relocation feature is on.

Chapter 1 About Avaya 7406 Digital Mobile Handset 17

Avaya 7406 Digital Mobile Handset — Installation Guide

Assigning the Handset to the Base Station

When you assign the first handset to a base station, you must send the security code to the base

station. For subsequent handsets, you only need to identify the security code on the handset itself.

This is explained in detail in later sections.

This is the general process for setting up a Avaya 7406 Digital Mobile Handset:

• Identify the handset to a unique Handset ID # (1, 2, or 3)

• Change the default password for selecting a handset ID (default: 000000)

• Assign a Security code (S.S. code)

• Send the Security code from the handset to the base station

• Assign the ring type

• Assign the ringer volume

• Assign the language that appears on the handset display

Using the Handset Display Buttons

The Avaya 7406 Digital Mobile Handset has a three-line display.

The three display buttons located under the display are used to interact with the handset menus and

the feature code messages that appear on the display.

•

The first line of the display shows

handset messages and menu items.

• The second line displays button

labels in capital letters.

• The third line displays the antenna/

signal strength icon and the battery

charge icon.

Configuring the First Handset to a Base Station

When you configure a handset to a new base station, you must ensure the base station receives the

assigned security code. For subsequent handsets, the security code must be identical, but it does

not need to be re-assigned to the base station.

Other settings are the same for all handsets.

Note: The handset ID #, which gets assigned to each handset, matches up to

TCM/RJ-11 jack on the back of the base. station. Ask your system administrator

which handset ID maps to which set DN on the system.

Note: Sending the security code to the base station is only performed for the first

handsets. For subsequent handsets, you need only identify the security code on the

handset.
